 And q single pull of that silken string would have been sufli cient to this horrible end.

 And so Gabriel Butterworth did not procure the destruction of my testimony, the grand jury found cause for indictment of far graver character than had at first been anticipated; and of those graver charges he was convicted. Seth Damon received back the full sum he had entrusted to the false mans care, and shortly afterward 1 en- tered into businsss with him; and today Seth Damon and l are part ners.

The Nicaragua Canal.

The Nicaragua a canal scheme has acquired fresh prominence and in- terest through the endorsements that threaten thePanams enterprise with disaster, and it's friends are preparing 10 urge it on the atten- ton of the world with increased zeal. It has been waiting on the Panama canal for several years, but the claims of courtesy on this ac- count are now exhausted The Panama scheme is held to be vir. tual failure, and this gives the Nicaragua project a right of hear. ing. ..=.a...
 The Nicaragua canal route is l69 miles from ocean to ocean, but 12O miles of this distance is covered by natural waterways of the river San Juan on the east, the river San Francisco on the west and Lake Nicaragua between them leaving only about forty miles of actual canal to be constructed. The San Juan river is a broad, deep stream through which the waters of the lake flow to the Atlantic. Of the forty miles of actual canal, twenty seven miles will be pure excavation and the remaining thirteen miles will be chiefly dredging. The heav jest cut will be on the Atlantic side l4 200 feet long, and 149 feet deep The canal, with the dam and locks that form part of it, will have a depth of thirty feet Of water, and will be able, therefore: to flo at any ship in the world except the Great Eastern and possibly the City Of Rome. The lake and large part of San Juan river are SD deep and free from obstruction that vessels can travel nearly as fast as at sea. The Engineers estimate that the passage through from ocean to ocean will consume only thirty hOurs-a very important saving over the thirty to ninety days il takes to make the long voyage round Cape Horn. Thirty.two ships will be able to pass through it in a day. The estimated cost of the work is sGi.o0O,0o and the time required for it's completion six years.
 Lake Nicaragua is an interesting feature of the proposed watery way. It lies nearly midway between the two oceans, is forty miles wide ninety miles long aud deep enough for the largest steamers to ride at anchor in. It is, in fact, a vast and locked harbOr in the heart of the country, where ships might stop to rest, repair and provision The advantages which it offers in those respects dimini shed the demand for harbor facilities at the tcrmini of the canal, and obviatc the nesslty for the terminal expen- ditures made on the Panama canal |.

PAPER MONEY CONDEMNED.
Exact Language of Jefferson, Webster, Pinkney, Bancroft.

The following extracts show conclusively that Jefferson, the father of the Democratic party ] Webster, ct al, do not favor paper money, as legal tender, but want ed gold and silver as legal tender, with currency { greenbacks J bot. toned on coin. Capt Ansley. in Ms quotations garbles Jefierson's words, as one can see by reading i the first extract below, and com pairing with his from same volume and letter. Jefferson, and the Democratic party of to day, favor greenbacks, but not as an exclu- sivo legal tender money, like Capt A, who quotes from Jetferson's letters (in a garbled way written during the war of 1872; and Cal houn's speech delivered during the panic Of 1S31, when they Jeff erson and Calhoun did favor re- dedmdble paper money. But for the Democratic party of today. there would be no greenbaCks i'll circulation, whereas We now have. Sj46. 100000, and, but for it silver would have remained demoneiized from 1878 to the present time and there woud have peen no real money save gold coin. Thnse truths can't be gainsaid But without fnr. ther comment. we give below, the extracts exact, in their proper connection: .H. t......
 "Every one knows, thatalthongh not literally, 1t is nearly lroe, hat every paper dollar emitted ban ishes a silver one from the circu- latiOn. 4 nation. therefore, mak ing it's purchases and pay ments with bills fitted for cirealation. thrusts an equal sum of coin out of circulation.H .H-J etfersous works, Vol. VI P. 139.
 II wish it were possible to ob- tain single amendment to our constitution. 1 would be willing to depend on that alone for the reduction of the administration of our government to the genuine principles of the Consultations; l mean an additional article, taking from the federal government the power ot borrowing. now deny their power of making paper mon ey or any thing else a legal ten. der.."- "-4J efierson's works, ,-Nol. " P. 260. aF
 "Most nnquestionably there is no legal tender, and there can he no legal tender, in this country, under the authority of this gov ernment or any other, but gold and silver coin, either the coinage of our own hints. or foreign coins, ! at rates regulated by congress."-- { Daniel Webster.
 II apprehend these general req. i sonings will be found true with respect to paper money: That experience has shown. that in ev- cry state where it has been prac- ticed since the revolution. it al ways carries the gold and the sil, yer out of the country and i'm poverishes it."-Charles Pinckney.

The Funny ArmadiIlo.

The armadillo lives in South America.
His name there is bolito, or .'little
ball because he rolls himself up in his
shell so that he can be tumbled about
like ball. The bands of shell are flexi-
BILE and overlap toward the
tail the collar and tail cape are
each in one piece, but slightly
flexible; the face shield is loose except
at the forehead. When alarmed the
animal will curl up quickly and hold his
shell as tight as closed oyster shell
until the danger is past. His fore feet
are made for burrowing and are not
much use in walking as he walks on
tiptoe. The easiest way for him to get
about is to roll, although he stays very
close at home. Sometimes pair OF
armadillos will have ten babies, that
keep the parents busy when the babies
are weaned. They eat insects princi-
pally, but will eat carrion. The MON
keys find great pleasure in teasing,.the
armadillos. The shrek of delight
when monkey discovers bolito taking
an airing will bring dozen or more
chattering creatures to the spot. They
roll him about, poke their fingers into
the cracks of his shell, screech, and
scold until tired, but bolito never cheeps
or relaXes muscle until his torment
ors leave him.--NeO York Telegram.

NUNS the Word in England.

The use of the word ''mum" has per-
haps struck the reader. Probably
there are not many people. outside the
court circles who know that this is the
invariable form of addressing. the
queen. 1t must not be "Your majesty
or MADAME" or even "Ma'am," but
the straightforward unequivocal
Num-" What the origin of this
usage was, or why it should be in
sisted upon, no one seems to know,
but it is custom rs immutable as the
laws of the Modes and the Persians.
Another unwritten rule, quite as in
variable, is that the prince of Wales
shall be called "Sir." He is, in truth,
the only man to whom an English
gentleman uses the word in CONVERSE
ton. There is no other one Ameri-
canism SO well known in England, or
so popularity believed here to be char
acteristic, as our indiscriminatc en-
ployment of the word Sir Cor.

A Typical California Town.

The town is in the heart of by far
the vastest wheat field on earth. You
see miles and miles of wheat bags piled
up in little mountains all the way to
San Francisco by the track waiting for
the freight cars. And yet the town
does not seem to be overly prosperous.
Perhaps l ought to repeat that it is
only one of about a thousand like
towns that have set out to grow up
with the country" with very Indifferent
success. Red Bluffs has too many
petty rivals perhaps. And perhaps
they are all modelled too much after
the same miserable provincial pattern.
In these California towns you hear the
click-clack of the billiard balls as you
enter them. You see some red faced
barkeeper in shirt-sleeves busting
about in every one of the dozen or so
saloons" two or three ''dead beats
leaning over each one of the many
billiard-tables. few old blossomed
noses poking about the corners looking
out for some one to treat, dozen or
so of loafers sitting cooked back on
broken chairs before the doors of the
saloons,"a lot of big, lazy boys lean.
ing against posts or shade trees, star
ing at the strangers and smoking
cigarettes or chewing tobacco, and
that is about all. These pretty
little California towns, for which God
has done so much and man so little,
are all alike, weak, worthless, helpless
They all have the leprosy, the deadly
damning leprosy of laziness in every
bone and fibre of them.-Red Rlu6
(COl.) Letter.
